Tardiness/Absences
It is the student's responsibility to arrive on time or call if unable to keep the appointment, or if he/she will be late. The tutor will only wait ten minutes. After that, the tutee will be considered a "no show". After two "no shows", tutoring may be denied for the remainder of the semester.
Child Care
Children are not allowed in the Learning Center.
Preparation
Tutees need to bring textbooks and other class-related materials to the tutoring session. It is imperative to be prepared for the tutoring session by having reviewed the course material beforehand, having specific questions or problems in mind, and having a genuine willingness to attempt to do the work.
Tutors cannot and will not complete the assignments for the tutee.

The student ID card must be presented for each tutoring appointment, and the tutee must sign the tutor's log at each session.
